For the assessment of the combination of CEA-TCB with CEA-4-1BBL, co-stimulatory antibody fusion protein in vitro assays are not sufficient to fully capture the complex relationships affecting efficacy. Thus, screening with different cell assays and in vivo efficacy studies in combination with CEA-TCB are essential to select the best candidate. Based on the totality of data on the T84.66-LCHA-4-1BBL antibody fusion protein comprising the CEACAM5 antibody, T84.66-LCHA was selected as the optimal combination partner for CEA-TCB.
This highlights our model's potential to predict clinical immunotherapy outcomes, capturing complex responses like immune activation, therapeutic selectivity, and potential resistance mechanisms. These findings underscore the utility of our model as a reliable, physiologically relevant tool for screening new immunotherapies and advancing our understanding of tumor-immune dynamics.

P1, N=47, Terminated, Hoffmann-La Roche | Completed --> Terminated; The Sponsor terminated the study because development of cibisatamab has been discontinued.
Cibisatamab is a bispecific antibody-based construct targeting carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) on tumour cells and CD3 epsilon chain as a T-cell engager. ADA appearance could be mitigated by obinutuzumab-pretreatment, with 8% of patients having persistent ADAs. Overall, cibisatamab warrants further exploration in immunotherapy combination strategies for MSS-CRC.
